I noticed, that on some wikis rollbacks have Admin-like rights, although they are not actually admins. Like they can delete comments, and pages, but they cant give rights. How is that possible? ~ilovepeeta~"Because she came here with me. . ." 04:51, June 30, 2012 (UTC)

Wikia Staff can change the group rights on a wiki, which allows for stuff like that. They can create new user groups, or change the abilities of certain groups, etc. If you want that on your wiki, you'd need 1) a community discussion with consensus to change the group rights and then 2) send a request to staff via Special:Contact explaining what you want to do and linking to the community discussion. To view the group rights on a wiki, use Special:ListGroupRights. Mathmagicianƒ(♫)05:02 UTC, Sat, 30 June 2012
